Topic: Luna? (Read 2320 times)

I bought this thinking it was a Davidsons "Luna" vase only to find that the "Luna" vases are square shaped and graduated in colour. This one is Hexagon shaped and 7 inches high.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Cheap to buy? Possibly. Cheap looking? That depends on how much you like it. :lol:

Cheap copies? Judging by pictures of Davidsons Luna, it looks like the same sort of quality.

Woolworths - for some people - turned out be cheap and definetly not nasty. Clarice Cliff and Pedigree dolls for example, though I've no idea how much they sold them for originaly.

I don't have any Davidson to compare it to, so I don't know. I have only seen the Luna range vases etc. on the Internet.I love Woolworths especially their pick 'n mix and I have just found out that there is one quite near to us, just over the border in Germany. When I was a child, it was a frequently visited shop for us, because it was affordable, definitely not cheap for us

If I know, I'll comment. If I think I know, I'll have a go. If I have no idea, I'll just keep quiet and learn from others, so the next time I'll know.

To my knowledge non of these vases are Luna. Davidson's Luna range was not cased and the pieces are much heavier than these.Some Luna pieces are shown on Chris & Val Stewart's excellent site here:http://cloudglass.com/Gallerypostwar.htm

I've had a few of these cased hexagonal and square vases in various colours. I still don't know who made them but one carried a foil label reading 'Best Art glass, Foreign'.

I can just remember (as a child, of course!!) UK Woolworths in the 1930s. They still had "3d and 6d Stores" above the shops and were still struggling to maintain that promise. For example, a table lamp might have been 6d for the base, 6d for the lampholder and 6d for the shade. If, as I understand, they were really selling Clariss Cliff (sp?) then each piece must have been 6d (or less!). For the children among you, that of course was 2 1/2pence.
